They says sachin as selfish cricketer ,
1,1999, Chennai test vs pakisthan
Sachin with severe back pain was executing his shots firmly and played a innings by putting a ice cube on his back and had pain killers.. AFTER FINISHING HIS CENTURY
Is he selfish ??? if he is selfish he would have sat on pavilion after making century
2,Final Qualifying match vs australia :
India the had two targets 285 to win d match 256 to qualify over run rate, After the dust storm accounted for four overs ,target was revised to 27 INDIA lost the match the match but achieved their main objective as sachin made 143 form 131 balls
Sachin took 143 later , a slight edge off his bat was taken by Gilchrist,he didnt appeal ,Bowler alone has appealed!Umpire didnt give out but sachin was sure that he had an edge and went to pavilion,even the umpire was stunned
Is he selfish ? if so , he could have stood there and made 150 that would add into his records
3,1999 world cup vs kenya
this one inning of Sachin Tendulkar should be seen as a highly emotional one. It is never easy to even hold a bat less than a week after your 'favourite' soul leaves the world. Sachin had lost his father mid-way through the world cup and had to rush back to India. He came back within a week and played an inning that even had his father admiring from the heavens. Such was the emotional intensity of that special inning that a few words of English will never be enough to describe it.
he came back and played for nation ..
4,He is only player to hit 6 to make hundreds six times in test ..People still says him as selfish ..
5,Overall, Did u see the joy on sachin's while india took the worldcup
If he is selfish , he wouldnot have celebrated much as he didnt perform well in final :)
6,He skipped ind tour of S.lanka , so that youngsters could play
If he is selfish , he could have played the series to make his 50th odi ton
Still many are there to prove he is selfless and playing for nation
